Показать описание

"Any Way You Want It" is a popular song performed by Journey, released on the album "Departure" as the opening track and as a single in 1980.
The song was written by frontman Steve Perry and guitarist Neal Schon. It peaked at #23 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The band often plays it to close their concerts. It appears on all four of the band's live albums (Captured, Greatest Hits Live, Live in Houston 1981: The Escape Tour, and Revelation on DVD). Since its release, the song has continued to infiltrate public consciousness through its use in numerous movies, television series, and advertisements.

The original video for the song opens with a man standing in front of a jukebox, his face unseen by the camera. He scrolls his finger up a list of songs and stops at "Any Way You Want It". He then reaches into his pocket and pulls out a coin which he inserts into the jukebox. He then selects the song and we see a record being flipped over and beginning to spin. This dissolves into a shot of a studio tape spinning which leads to the group performing the song in the studio. The band's performance comprises most of the video until the song ends. At this point the man at the jukebox is revealed to actually be singer Steve Perry who turns and smiles at the camera.

Another video exists which is a live performance during the Departure Tour (this version).
Both videos were omitted from the band's Greatest Hits 1978--1997 DVD in favor of another live version of the song from the Escape Tour.
